Just what we needed, one more PC douchebag. If you can't tell how much worse Chinese drivers are than the norm then you are just ignorant. The texting is just side issue. We used to go to lunch in a Chinese plaza in San Mateo and get a table outside just so we could watch the accidents in the parking lot which happened constantly. It was like watching 6 year olds in bumper cars. They don't look and think people should just get out of their way. They have serious problems with perception of debth and worst of all they just don't give a **** about anyone but themself. Ask anyone who has drives in NorCal or Socal or has been to China.

That's pretty much the impression I got from the guy I hit. I'm assuming he was lost, missed his turn or something, wasn't sure where he was going so he just stopped in the middle of a traffic lane without any regard to the hazard he was posing to other drivers.

Maybe he was just singing?

I had a Chinese man who owns one of the local restaurants (recognized him... good restaurant) stop in the middle of traffic to let me cross the street today as I was standing in the medium waiting for the cars to pass by.

Asshole. Holding up traffic.

I will say this in whatever form it takes people that are not cognizant of how their actions impact other people sharing the same physical space as them is one of the most frustrating qualities in a person. Really really gets to me.

OK. Good point. I think I missed some punctuation maybe but that's ok.

I have no problem with you... whether we've often agreed or not. At least you have a real team to root for. That's something.

To take it one step further in that parking lot I was just talking about we ate there 5 years because our firm was on the other side of it. Out of the countless times we saw these guys run into other parked cars not once did somebody get out and do the right thing. THey take off every time. We are talking Mercedes Benz here, not some tin can. They do not give a **** about anyone but themself. I think I will leave it there before I really get rolling.

I'm not doubting your story at all... seriously. It almost seems to me that maybe living a coastal lifestyle or a midwest lifestyle can make all the difference. There are several Chinese here and if anything they are more polite and demure than most people... in my experience.

I'm pretty sure that's not it.

No persona.

Name was changed as a joke and it didn't bother me. Asked for it to be changed back one day.
